Traditional Houses of Somerset.
PENOYRE, J.

  • Traditional Houses of Somerset.

Illus., some in colour, diagrams, plans, index; 176pp.

This book, illustrated by photographs and drawings of local stones, building styles, house plans, roof structures and the more decorative features of the houses, explores the local traditional buildings that extend in date from the late-thirteenth century to the beginning of the eighteenth. The book is arranged in two main sections, the first covering some aspects of the physical and historical background against which all the buildings are seen, and the second examining the buildings themselves. These include small manor houses, farmhouses, village and some town houses together with farm groups from various parts of the county. The book also includes some examples of individual house surveys.
